Looks really nice :) what souls are you running on those?
marksman/bard/ranger cant wait for the 24th having a blast with this game =-)
what system spec you using to 5 box Void?
i7 930 overclocked to 3.5
12gig of mem
gtx 470
I suspected as much, im planning on running same setup :)
Thats not much more than what i have, i have i7 920. 12 gigs of ram and gtx 480, think its a cpu issue? my cpu was the very first core i7 available. i bought it at Frys the day they came out.Quote:

5 boxing fine on lowest settings.
OCing the i7-920 is v easy mate.
ALL IN BIOS
1. Change AI Overlock Tuner from Auto to Manual.
2. Set CPU multiplier to 20 in CPU Ratio setting.
3. Chnage QPI frequency (Asus calls this 'BCLK Frequency) from 133 to 190 (CPU freq = QPI x CPU multiplier giving 3.8Ghz)
4. Memory will now be set to run too high, so find 'DRAM frequency' and change it to approxiamate its setting (eg if its 1600 set it to 1523 Mhz, dont go over its setting).
5. Raise CPU voltages slightly 'CPU Voltage' to 1.275v and CPU PLL to 1.9v. You may need slightly higher on the CPU but DONT go above 1.45v.
6. DDR3 memory needs 1.65v to run optimally. Set DRAM Bus Voltage to this (may only allow 1.64 or 1.65.
7. Disable 'CPU Spread Spectrum' and 'PCIE Spread Spectrum'.
Note sometimes you hardware may appear to be running at original settings if you run something like CPU-Z - this is a basic power saving feature in some hardware that makes it runner slower when not loaded.
If you don't like playing in BIOS Google something like TurboV for ASUS

Thx! ill have to give that a shot!
Lyon, to be safe when overclocking:
Change only your CPU Clock up incementally. With i7 920, your Multiplier will be 21x (with Turbo enabled) and your FSB Frequency (CPU Clock) will be 133.
Change your CPU Clock to 160 to start out with. This will get you to ~3.3 GHz. Save and Exit, allowing your PC to get past POST. If this is successful, go to www.memtest.org and download an ISO for their latest memtest86 program. You need to burn it as a bootable CD.
Restart your comp, changing BIOS to boot from the CD drive to run this Memtest. If your PC passes, you are OK to proceed with either being happy with your current Overclocking, or you can try for higher speeds.
If you want higher speeds, I recommend reviewing this post:

Start out only changing CPU Clock. Don't change voltage levels if you don't have to. Increasing Voltage won't necessarily fry your CPU, but it will cause it to generate more heat, which might be a bad thing if your cooling system is inadequate.
As an example, I have a i7 950, and overclocked it to 3.6 GHz just by changing the CPU Clock to 160Hz (up from 133). This gives a pretty good improvement when 5-boxing Rift. I stuttered quite a bit at lower frequencies.
(You have a 920, so simply moving your CPU Clock to 160 will give you less than 3.6GHz, but an improvement none-the-less).
Also, If you PC doesn't POST, shut it down, wait a couple seconds and reboot it. Your BIOS should prompt you to reconfigure settings as the previous POST failed. As long as you aren't messing with Voltages, there is a very small chance any harm will come to your PC.
